f*here is nothing to prevent the treaty's completion in the future by provid ing for joint high commission i*ast article from * pen of the famed journalist a plea for the cause to which he gave the best years of his life 771 1 lli am t stead as special correspondent of the Chicago examiner in london , w neve r lost a seasonable opportunity to turn his pen to the topic of international peace and arbitration the work of love of the riper years of his life just before he sailed on the titanic mr stead prepared an article for the Chicago examiner under his own title â€” an appeal to mr Taft it was intended to be cabled and was written in the direct style of appeal without superfluous words or phrases of which mr stead was a master in his cabled correspondence in some way the manuscript miscarried and came into the Chicago office of the ex aminer after mr stead had lost his life with hundreds of other brave men on the titanic it probably was his last piece of writing for publication it is his final appeal for world wide peace â€” his last message to the people an appeal to mr Taft tn common with all the friends of international peace and arbitration on this side of the at lantic i have read with real dismay the state ment cabled from washington that president Taft does not intend to present the arbitration treaties to great britain and france because of the extent to which they have been amended or mutilated by the senate i sincerely hope that the report is false as much as i regret the action of the senate half a loaf is better than no bread and the treaties even in their mutilated shape are much too good to be sacrificed in a moment of pique dent and his cabinet not to act like petulant suffra gettes but to accept the treaties as they are and press them upon the acceptance of russia and france better any treaty than not at all the amend ed treaty constitutes a real advance upon the status quo and there is nothing to prevent its completion in the future by a supplementary treaty providing for some sort of a joint commission commanding the confidence of the senate to decide subject to the veto of the senate whether or not any disputed question is arbitrable ia a step in advance from the point of view of an ardent pacificist who has had the opportunity of re porting from day to day proceedings of both the hague conferences i am free to confess that i can see many advantages in the policy of one step at a time which the senate has adopted profound political blunder to drop treaty the treaty with the clause constituting a joint high commission was a good treaty it is still a good treaty although not quite so good as it was before a majority of two decided against the crea tion of a joint high commission we should have preferred a treaty without clauses exempting from its operation this that and other groups of subjects but because we cannot get all that president Taft has promised us it would be a grave mistake and a profound political blunder to drop the treaty be cause it is not quite so good as we hoped it would be it is because i am deeply convinced that the treaty as it stands to-day is well worth having that i venture to make an earnest appeal to the presi wm.j^stead treaty constitutes a solid advance america leads the arbitration sentiment of the world but it is sometimes a mistake for the van guard to forge ahead too far in advance of the main body president taft's magnificent initiative raised hopes which were doomed to disappointment but it has been fully justified by the passage of the amended treaty which although it falls far short of fulfilling our expectations nevertheless consti tutes a real solid substantial advance toward the goal which we all have in view rain wind and higher

best years of his life 771 1 lli am t stead as special correspondent of the Chicago examiner in london , w neve r lost a seasonable opportunity to turn his pen to the topic of international peace and arbitration the work of love of the riper years of his life just before he sailed on the titanic mr stead prepared an article for the Chicago examiner under his own title â€” an appeal to mr Taft it was intended to be cabled and was written in the direct style of appeal without superfluous words or phrases of which mr stead was a master in his cabled correspondence in some way the manuscript miscarried and came into the Chicago office of the ex aminer after mr stead had lost his life with hundreds of other brave men on the titanic it probably was his last piece of writing for publication it is his final appeal for world wide peace â€” his last message to the people an appeal to mr Taft tn common with all the friends of international peace and arbitration on this side of the at lantic i have read with real dismay the state ment cabled from washington that president Taft does not intend to present the arbitration treaties to great britain and france because of the extent to which they have been amended or mutilated by the senate i sincerely hope that the report is false as much as i regret the action of the senate half a loaf is better than no bread and the treaties even in their mutilated shape are much too good to be sacrificed in a moment of pique dent and his cabinet not to act like petulant suffra gettes but to accept the treaties as they are and press them upon the acceptance of russia and france better any treaty than not at all the amend ed treaty constitutes a real advance upon the status quo and there is nothing to prevent its completion in the future by a supplementary treaty providing for some sort of a joint commission commanding the confidence of the senate to decide subject to the veto of the senate whether or not any disputed question is arbitrable ia a step in advance from the point of view of an ardent pacificist who has had the opportunity of re porting from day to day proceedings of both the hague conferences i am free to confess that i can see many advantages in the policy of one step at a time which the senate has adopted profound political blunder to drop treaty the treaty with the clause constituting a joint high commission was a good treaty it is still a good treaty although not quite so good as it was before a majority of two decided against the crea tion of a joint high commission we should have preferred a treaty without clauses exempting from its operation this that and other groups of subjects but because we cannot get all that president Taft has promised us it would be a grave mistake and a profound political blunder to drop the treaty be cause it is not quite so good as we hoped it would be it is because i am deeply convinced that the treaty as it stands to-day is well worth having that i venture to make an earnest appeal to the presi wm.j^stead treaty constitutes a solid advance america leads the arbitration sentiment of the world but it is sometimes a mistake for the van guard to forge ahead too far in advance of the main body president taft's magnificent initiative raised hopes which were doomed to disappointment but it has been fully justified by the passage of the amended treaty which although it falls far short of fulfilling our expectations nevertheless consti tutes a real solid substantial advance toward the goal which we all have in view rain wind and higher
